... Men have put women down for years not letting them be their own person and not letting them see how much the can accomplish on the own. Men feel because they are men, they are the superior gender, which is not true in the least. They may have been in the past, but women have started to break through the barriers men have put up, and being successful at doing so. This revolution had been known as womanpower. Men still believe that women should obtain jobs like secretaries and nurses instead of being the bosses or the doctors.

One of the researchers we took a look at was Deborah Tannen. According to Tannen the reason that men and women do not communicate well is that men and women use language differently. Women take the attitude that conversation is to explore solutions to common problems while men concern themselves more with getting information and hard data from conversation. Tannen states that what women look for in communication is human connection, while men consider status to be most important. They are looking for independence and are ...

... part of reality is the result of a person's attitudes. In simple terms, our attitudes reflect what we expect from life. This shouldn't be confused with what we want, dream or hope for. No one wants to be unhappy, lead a boring life or look back over the years with remorse and regret. Yet, so often rather than expecting the best life has to offer, people expect much the opposite. They expect problems and get problems; expect disappointments and are disappointed; expect to fail and then, rather than experience the desired success, they fail. If attitudes are the mental expectations about jobs, relationships, financial status and so on, then these very powerful tho ...

Creativity is not equal among most people and in fact is hindered by " . . . self censorship, that inner voice of judgment that confines our creative spirit within the boundaries of what we deem acceptable."(Psych Today). Dr. Torrence, in his studies, concluded that intelligence does not have any effect on creativity and it is the thinking style that actually stimulates creativity (Journal of Personality). His tests focused on the hemispheres of the brain in which he stated that " . . . left - hemisphere style is rel ...

... men should be treated as equals, however, more attention is directed towards discrimination towards women. In the 1990s, the men's movement arose in society to try and deal with the problem of sexism against men. This movement came about due to a medley of factors: women's criticisms of men's shortcomings as husbands, fathers, and lovers; the debilitating pressures of the economy and men's unequal responsibility to succeed in the workplace, to prove their worth by making money; and men's confusion over what it means to be a man today. There are many stereotypes about men and women that are heard every day. The most common, however, is how men are considered j ...
